and | never raw it advertised. But to my
personal knowledge it bestowed lasting
benefit on ut least one lady. l have never
been able to procure it in New York. 1t
was inexpensive imported preparation.
Plenty offresh air, a great deal of bodily
exercise, and the free use of cream and but
ter in the diet are necessary to procure a
good complexion.
One of my acquaintance substitutes 3
tea made of red clover tops or daudelion
roots for her morning coffee frequently,
and always with excellent results to her
complexion.
In closing my talk with ladies on this
subject, l would classify and sum up my
advice something like this:
Train your features to composure, and
avoid all ~grimacing habits.
Exercise much in the open air.
Use oils, creams, and fruit freely in your
diet.
Drink simple, blOOd-purifying herb teas
frequently.
Do not wash your faces oftener than
Once a day, but apply some harmless
cream or meal at leasttwicein t~wenty-four
hours.
If niggardly Nature or jealous Time on
a hot summer day necessitatOs the addi-
ton Off powder puff to your toilet articles,
use II Tith discretion and moderation.
Aud in addition to all this you must
keep yOor minds busy, your thought
cheerful, and your souls free from bitter
ness if you would preserve a fresh, attrac-
tive exterior beyond the feeting spring

o'clock the previous night, he had dropped
from his steed. had kept on and crept into
his present quarters, feeling that the
end would speedily come. With
dying breath he gave minute in
structions to his two comrades
how to escape into Mexico, advice
that proved of incalculable value, and
brought them safely across the Rio Grande;
then he peacefully passed away. A lonely
grave was made with the bowie knife, and
with his rifle beside him he lays unknown
in the soil Of his adopted country, having
given all for her sake as faithfully and de-
votedly as the thousands who fell defend
ing her starry banner amid the roar of bat
tie.
The lives of the secret service officer and
his companion were no doubt saved by the
heroic action of these three U~nion-loving
Texans, whose names are not entered upon

The Funniest KISS In the business.
n-L--.L IL-Ln-..

The kiss that is witnessed by an unseen
observer through au unCurtained window
is the funniest kiss in the business. 1t IS
a kiss which sticks in the memory OF the
who witnesses the performance above all
other ~kisse5-except those rare and rdcy
OSCILLATIONS in which he himself figured rs
the party of the first act. OF course those
are different, and he would naturally be
expected to remember them.
The rarity of the kisses caught on the ny
through uncurtained windows renders
them exceedingly valuable. The average
Young man who sets to kiss his way into the
bosom of somebody else's family pulls
down the curtain aud turns down the gas,
but there are occasional exceptions IN
which the young people seem to lose their
presence Of mind, and forget everything
except the unfinished business which was
held over from the last meeting.
In such cases everybody in own Is Ger
tain to pas by that particular window Just
at the critical moment, and the unconscious
performers scott along on the topmost
wave of popularity without being aware OF
the fact. And everybody who passes that
window stops as suddenly aud unmlstak-
ably a. though petrlied.
You couldn't get a man away from In
front OF a window where there was any
kissing going on if you were to explode a
dynamite bomb under his feet.

A gentle, lovely woman entered a Main

The lady was still uncertain, but she

The teller sighed and gave her two one

even thought of, for by so doing the most
valuable results Of his investigating tour
would be lost TO the United States Gov
eminent. They wee in the possession OF
good horses, armed with rifles, revolvers
and sufficient ammunition to supply any
call. After resting their steeds for a couple
of hours the route was again taken mp,
aud the comrades expected to reach by
shutdown a sheep-iarm, owned by a
German, who, the grazier said, was
a good friend of his and where n good sup
per and shake down for the night could be
obtained without much danger OF capture.
The dag passed on, as expected, without
encountering much of special note. The
raute led across a range of elevated lands
between the beds OF Insignificant brooks,
tributaries of the Nueces. The soil was
black and the grass abundant beneath the
shrubs, giving the horses sufficient Oppor-
tunitv to sustain themselves. At sunset
the sheep farm was reached, and the pair
were received by a buxOm German woman
of middle age, who informed them that her
husband would he home soon, as he had
gone with two men dressed in uniforms to
sell some horses he had at a place aboutfive
miles away. Not very anxious TO be in
troduced at that time tn Confederate SOL
diery, the twain i~mportuned the women to
give them something to eat Mt once, but

companions when in the midst OF a meal

neatress. had placed before them, m

alphabetical warriors agent was paying IN
Confederate scrip. which the German far
mer refused point blank, as he said he did
MT know money of that kind, and pre-
ferred United States gold or Mexican dol
lars. His refusal caused the officers TO
state that a troop OF rangers was expected
in the vicinity the next morning, inior-
nation which caused the two travellers
to quietly disappear feom their sleeping
room at midnight, without waiting the
arrival of the reinforcements men
toned. A three hours ride brought
them to the rendezvous decided upon.
and in a hollow formed by a dry water
course q Union friend MORALLY wounded
was found, crippled by two rife balls in
his right leg and shot in addition through
the body in the region Of the spine. He
stated that his two companions, who with
him so calamity made the charge at Salado
creek, had been killed, that the fieetness
of his horse was the cause Of his escape,
and that when hotly pursued at about 10
